PS5 Restock to Supply Target with 'Biggest Drop' In Months; Here's How to Secure Yours

A PS5 Restock is happening and it would supply Target with a speculated "biggest drop" in months, says a YouTuber and leaker of this release. Halfway into 2021, the gaming consoles that were introduced in the heat of the pandemic still sees production issues, hence this shortage where the demand is more significant than its supply.

Target has been a consistent store in delivering new stocks for the PS5, even more so than Amazon and Costco in the past months. That being said, it goes alongside that of Walmart and GameStop which have been the choice stores for users who want a PS5 themselves.

PS5 Restock: Biggest Drop in Months for Target

According to influencer and YouTuber Jake Randall, his leaks are reliable because he has insider information from employees, where he provides a screenshot of vendor drops.

The photo, shows that the vendor, Sony, is dropping new stocks by July 27, but later stocks would drop from Wednesday (July 28) to Thursday (July 29).

Randall specified that users should focus on Target's restocks on Wednesday and Thursday, especially at 6:30 AM ET and 9:00 AM ET. The drop would not be following Target's usual releases, as it would focus on different times.
